GEC attributes explained

Every listing states the attributes below, so you can check it fits your use case before buying.

Vintage
The year the underlying electricity was generated, written as V plus the year — V2025 means electricity generated in 2025. Many buyers require certificates from the same or a nearby year as their consumption.
Quarters
The quarters (Q1–Q4) of the vintage year in which the electricity was generated.
Energy type
The renewable source of the generating project: wind, solar, hydro or biomass.
Subsidy
Unsubsidized GECs come from grid-parity projects; subsidized GECs come from projects receiving the national renewable tariff subsidy; subsidy pending means the project has applied but is not yet on the subsidy list.
Channel
How the electricity is consumed: in-province means it is used within the province, a cross-province channel means it is transmitted to other provinces, and an inter-provincial channel means it is sent over a dedicated inter-regional transmission corridor.
Grid support
UHV-linked projects are generation built to supply an ultra-high-voltage transmission line; standalone projects are ordinary renewable plants.
Commissioning
The year the project was connected to the grid. International initiatives such as RE100 generally require certificates from projects commissioned within the last 15 years.
Platform
Where the certificates are traded and transferred: the China Green Electricity Certificate Trading Platform, Beijing Power Exchange or Guangzhou Power Exchange.
Delivery
Account transfer means the seller transfers the certificates directly to the buyer's account on the platform; any means delivery as agreed between the parties.

Buying GEC: FAQ

What is a China Green Electricity Certificate (GEC)?

A GEC is an electronic certificate issued by the state for electricity generated by renewable energy projects. One certificate represents 1 MWh of renewable electricity and is the sole proof of its environmental attributes in China, forming the basis for recognizing green power generation and consumption.

What can I use the certificates for?

GECs support corporate green power consumption claims, Scope 2 greenhouse gas accounting and the electricity component of product carbon footprints. International initiatives such as RE100 often add requirements on commissioning date and vintage — filter by "Commissioning" and "Vintage" on this page, or ask a consultant.

What is the difference between subsidized and unsubsidized GECs?

Unsubsidized GECs come from grid-parity projects and the proceeds go to the project owner; subsidized GECs come from projects receiving the national renewable tariff subsidy, and their proceeds offset that subsidy. Both carry the same environmental attributes; subsidized certificates are usually cheaper.

How is the order delivered?

After you submit a request, a consultant confirms the contract and payment within one business day. Once paid, the certificates are transferred to your account on the platform named in the listing (China GEC Trading Platform, Beijing Power Exchange or Guangzhou Power Exchange), and we can help retire them and issue a statement.
